  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Wesley Henry Scherler McDowell. Wesley is a very special young man who 
has exemplified the finest qualities of citizenship and leadership by 
taking an active part in the Boy Scouts of America, Troop 175, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.

  Wesley has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Wesley has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Wesley has 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Wesley 
scraped, painted and replaced the floor molding in the front entryway 
and men's bathroom for St. Rita's school at St. Munchin in Cameron, 
Missouri.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Wesley Henry 
Scherler McDowell for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of 
America and for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest 
distinction of Eagle Scout.
